PREFACE.
The Dictionary of Middle-English 1 compiled by Dr. F. H. Stratmann, of
Krefeld, is the only comprehensive dictionary of that stage of the English
language hitherto published in a completed state ; the only other existing
work of the same kind being that of Matzner, of which the first instalment
appeared in 1878, and which has -as yet been carried only to the letter J. The
third and latest edition of Dr. Stratmann’s dictionary was published in 1878,,
and an extensive supplement was issued in 1881. At the time of the author’s
death, which took place in 1884, he had apparently almost completed the
preparation of a new edition. The copyright of the work was subsequently
purchased by the Delegates of the Clarendon Press, and the author’s materials
for the new edition (consisting of an annotated copy of the printed book) were
placed in my hands to be prepared for the press. The unanimous opinion of
the scholars in this country who were consulted was that simply to reprint the
work in the form contemplated by the author would be wholly unadvisable,
and that an extensive revision was needed in order to adapt it to the needs
of English students. Although the book was marked by great learning and
ability, as well as by extraordinary industry, it had certain serious practical
defects, chiefly, it may be remarked, due to those limitations of scope without
which it would probably have been impossible for the author to bring his work
to completion in any reasonable number of years. The principal respects in
which the present edition aims at being an improvement on the original work
are as follows : —
1. If the definition of a dictionary be that it is a book which explains
the meaning of words, Dr. Stratmann’s work can scarcely be regarded as
a dictionary at all. With the meaning of Middle-English words, the author
concerned himself but little ; his principal care was to identify them etymo-
logically; that is to say, to connect them with their descendants in Modern-
1 In the published editions the work is entitled ‘A Dictionary of the Old English Language
but in revising it for a new edition the author substituted ‘ Middle-English’ for ‘ Old English ’ in
the title-page. He also indicated that in the body of the dictionary the abbreviation ‘A.-S.’
(Anglo-Saxon) should be changed into * O.E.’

PREFACE.
English, their antecedents in Old-English, and their cognates in other
languages.. Such explanations of meanings as were given were merely sub-
sidiary to this object. Not infrequently, indeed, words (and those not merely
compounds or obvious derivatives) were left without interpretation altogether ;
in other cases the sense was indicated only by Latin words, which were often
themselves ambiguous. Where a Middle-English word was glossed by a
Modern-English one, the latter was commonly the etymological equivalent,
even though the word might have undergone a complete change of meaning.
In a very large number of instances the only vernacular gloss is an obsolete
or dialectal word taken from Halliwell’s ' Dictionary of Archaic and Provincial
Words,’ or some similar source, and quite unintelligible to ordinary English
readers. The following examples will illustrate the author’s method che-
owen . . . chew (chow, chig ), tnandere, objurgare ; cubbel, kibble, fustis ; galetron
. . . galster ( gauster ), crepare\ galwen, gallow (gaily), t err ere ? ; jeolpen, yelp
(yilp), gloriari, jactari ; kitelen . . . kittle, titillare ; plaigen . . . p/aw, ludere ;
achate . . . shout, lembus [the word means a flat-bottomed boat] ; scorklin,
scorklc, ustulare ; snobben, snob, singultire; alumen, sloutn, dormitare. In the
present edition, I have endeavoured to provide every word with an intelligible
explanation in English. When a word has greatly changed in meaning, I
have cited the modern form for the sake of completing the etymological
history of the word, but in such a manner as not to mislead the reader as to
the earlier sense. As the distinctive feature of the book is that the examples
are arranged according to the grammatical forms, and not according to the
senses, it is obvious that the shades of meaning could not be explained with
the same precision and completeness as in larger works like that of Matzner,
or the New English Dictionary, but it is hoped that the explanations given
will be found sufficiently full and accurate for ordinary practical needs. The
indication of the parts of speech, which was wholly omitted in the original
work, has been supplied.
2. Another inconvenient feature of the original dictionary was its per-
plexing etymological arrangement. The compound words, instead of being
inserted in alphabetical order, were placed under their initial element, even
though this happened to be an inseparable prefix. Hence, in order to find
one of these words, it was necessary to know, or to conjecture its etymology —
or rather, Dr. Stratmann’s opinion as to its etymology. Suppose, for example,
the word amaien is to be sought for in the Dictionary by a student who has no
notion of its derivation. The first step of course is to look for it in its a pha-
betical place. It is not there, nor is there a cross-reference. We next turn
to the words under the prefix a-, but amaieri is not among them. The cross-
reference a-, see ab-, ad-, an-, and-, at-, en-, es-, 36-, and of-, gives us the choice
of ten other places, in any of which the word we are seeking may possibly be
found. As a matter of fact, it is placed under es-, so that the reader who takes

the natural and proper course of turning to the several places in their alpha-
betical order will have looked in ten different pages of the Dictionary before he
conies to the word he wants. Even this example, however, does not fully
represent the complexity of Dr. Stratmann’s method of arrangement. The
sub-headings under each of the prefixes are not arranged in the alphabetical
order of the words themselves, but in that of the original form of their second
element ; though this rule is sometimes departed from, apparently by mere
oversight. To any one unacquainted with Romanic etymology, the arrange-
ment of the words grouped under com-, for instance, must appear absolutely
lawless. The following is an example of the mode of sequence adopted for
these compounds : congeien, cogitacittn, coint, cointise, conjure, collecte, culvert,
cullin, couche, couchin, comanden. Romanic philologists will, of course, see at
once why this order has been followed, though the position of the word
cogitacittn seems to be due to some mistake. But the majority of those for
whom a Middle- English dictionary is intended cannot be expected to find
their way readily through such a labyrinth. It has, indeed, often happened
that even scholars have erroneously stated a word to be wanting in Stratmann,
when in fact it had not been overlooked, but had been recorded in some un-
likely place. In this edition I have in the main adopted alphabetical order.
Compounds of substantives and adjectives, however, and of words like biforen
and an^en, are grouped under their first and most important element; and
agent-nouns in -ere and nouns of action in -ing follow the verbs from which
they are derived. These compounds and derivatives are printed in smaller
type and indented, so as not to disturb the general alphabetical arrangement.
3. In. cases where a foreign word has come into English by two different
channels, and with consequent diversity of form, Dr. Stratmann’s usual practice
is to treat the word as one. In some instances, where the two forms existed
merely as dialectal varieties, without any sense-distinction, this procedure has
its advantages ; but in others it obscures the facts. The words desk and dish,
for example, both descend ultimately from the Latin discus, and therefore in
the former editions of this dictionary they are put together as one word. This
would be permissible if (as any one would suppose from reading the article)
the two forms were employed promiscuously in Middle-English. But the fact
is that in that period of the language the words were quite as clearly dis-
tinguished as they are now. I have in this and other similar cases separated
the two words. It now appears to me that this ought to have been done still
more frequently : the verbs chicen and cacchen, for example, would be better
separated.
4. The words which in primitive Teutonic began with hi-, hn-, hr- are in
the former editions of the dictionary given under the letter H. As the initial
h is very generally omitted in Middle-English, this arrangement imposes on
viii
PREFACE.
the reader (unless he knows the etymology of the word) the necessity of
searching in two different places. I have therefore removed these words to the
letters L, N, and R respectively ; prefixing, however, an italic h to distinguish
them from those which have an unaspirated initial.
5. One of the most important changes which have been introduced in this
edition relates to the notation of vowel quantities. In the original work the
quantities marked were not those which the vowels had in Middle-English, but
those of the earliest Old- English, although it is well known that extensive
changes in vowel quantity had taken place before the end of the twelfth
century, and probably much earlier. The author’s procedure in this respect
is not, indeed, so wholly irrational as it may at first sight appear. The Old-
English quantity admits of being ascertained with tolerable precision, while
Middle-English quantity is in many cases uncertain, and in other cases varies
according to locality and period. Moreover, the primitive quantity is that
which is of greatest etymological importance. I have, however, ventured on
the attempt to give a representation of the actual quantity in Middle-English
in such a manner as to exhibit its relation to the earlier quantity. Dr. Strat-
mann employed the circumflex ( A ) to denote a vowel which was originally
long and stressed, original length without stress being indicated by the
macron ('). In my notation the macron is placed over an original long
vowel which remained long in Middle-English ; an original long vowel
which has become short by position is marked (“) ; and a short vowel which
has been lengthened by position is marked with the acute accent. (It might
perhaps have been better to use the circumflex for this purpose instead of the
acute.) Original short vowels which remained unchanged in quantity are
left 'unmarked. It is hoped that this notation will serve to render more
intelligible the manner in which changes of quantity influenced the qualitative
character of Middle-English vowels. In many points the correctness of my
quantitative indications will be somewhat disputable. The vowels a, e, i, o
before Id I have marketf as ‘new long,' except under special conditions which
modify the general rules. Similarly I have recognised a lengthening of i and
u before nd. The lengthening of e before nd and before n followed by a
palatal g, certainly prevailed to a considerable extent, but I doubt whether it
was at all so general as the other lengthening, and I have therefore left it
unmarked. For similar reasons the lengthening effect of r, followed by a
voiced consonant, has not been regarded. There is room for much doubt
whether the later positional lengthenings persisted in spite of loss of stress in
the second element of a compound. In such cases I have left the vowels
unmarked, except where special evidence seems to show that the lengthened
quantity was retained. With reference to words of Romanic or Latin origin
the question of quantity is very perplexing. Dr. Stratmann correctly re-
cognised that Latin quantity as distinguished from Latin accent had in

IX
general no influence on Middle- English pronunciation, and has therefore
treated the unaccented vowels in words derived from Romanic and Latin as
(proximately) short, with the exception of those that have compensatory length.
I have followed his example in marking as long the vowels in final syllables
like -&ge, -on, -te, -ure, &c., which originally were stressed, though owing to a
shifting of accent which began, at latest, in the fourteenth century, this
notation cannot be regarded as correct for the whole Middle-English period.
I should now prefer to mark with the circumflex all Romanic and Latin
vowels which were positionally long in early Middle-English, whatever their
original quantity, and to leave the rest unmarked.
6. In one instance I have ventured to introduce a diacritic expressive
of vowel quality. I have employed the character ix to distinguish the cases
in which a Middle-English u expresses either the sound which descended from
Old-English y 1 , or some sound but slightly different from this. It is clear
that in some early loan-words from French, the u was at first sounded in much
the same way as the English ii, u, and I have therefore in these instances
marked it with the two points. I now regret not having made a more extensive
use of diacritics. The tailed p, p ought to have been used for Middle-English o
when representing an Old-English a, & ; the palatal sound of g also might
with advantage be distinguished with a special sign.
7. In the etymologies I have attempted to distinguish between direct
derivation and collateral relationship of words 2 , and have also rectified many
errors of detail. Dr. Stratmann’s work in this department was eminently
scholarly, but the fresh light thrown on many points of comparative Teutonic
phonology, by the researches of the past few yeais, often necessitates an
alteration in the form, and sometimes in the substance, of his statements.
One error which frequently occurs in the previous editions is that the Old-
English verbs in -ian are identified with the continental Teutonic verbs in -jan
instead of with those in -on, while the umlaut verbs, really corresponding to
the continental verbs in -jan, are treated as if peculiar to English.
8. Although the present edition has no pretensions to be regarded as an
exhaustive dictionary of Middle-English, it contains a very large number of
words not found in the former editions. The author’s interest was chiefly in
the Teutonic portion of the language, and in his work as originally issued the
words of Romanic and Latin origin were almost wholly absent. In deference
to the opinion of English scholars, many of these were inserted in later editions,
but even in the author’s last revision the vocabulary was still conspicuously
1 In the case of the combination wur I have left the u unmarked, since even in Old-
English wyr often became wur.

direct descendants of the particular dialectal form in Old-English that happens to be quotable.

defective with regard to the Romanic element. Besides this, many other
words, sometimes of considerable literary importance, appear to have been
intentionally omitted, because owing to their doubtful derivation they could
not be conveniently brought under the etymological arrangement adopted in
the work. In the selection of new words for insertion I do not profess fo
have followed any systematic method. It is probable that many really im-
portant words have been overlooked, while some have been inserted that
might well have been spared. While I have not expunged the proper names
inserted by the author himself, I have not added any others. By further
abbreviating the references, which though occupying much space were not full
enough to be understood without the help of the table of contractions, it has
been found possible to compress the much augmented work into about the
same number of pages as were contained in the third edition, together with
the supplement.
There are several features of the dictionary which I do not myself regard
with approval, though for various reasons I have refrained from altering them.
One of these is the normalized orthography of the quotations. My own view
is that the quotations, though not the headings oi the articles, ought to be
given in the spelling of the MSS., or at least in that of some standard critical
edition ; but the gain of textual correctness would not be commensurate with
the expenditure of time and labour which would be needed to conform every
quotation to the original. Some special points in Dr. Stratmann’s system of
normalized spelling now appear to me objectionable ; for example, he uses the
letter v not only when the u or v of the MSS. had the sound of v, but also
where it had a different consonantal power (=w), as in qvailen, gverdon, and
zvo (Ayenbite). In words taken from early texts which use g for 3, the former
letter is retained, even in the lemmas, although the process of ' normalizing *
would seem to have more justification here than in most other cases. The
complaint often made that Dr. Stratmann chooses as the 4 dictionary forms 1 of
M iddle- English words not those of the period of Chaucer and Langland, but
those nearest to the Old-English, does not seem to me to be of great moment ;
the inconveniences of this course being counterbalanced by the advantage of
presenting the various forms in something like genealogical sequence. The
author, however, did not sufficiently recognise the fact that the orthographical
coincidence of Middle-English with Old-English is often merely accidental,
especially when the digraphs ©, ea, eo are concerned ; and most of the
articles on words containing these digraphs would need to be rewritten in
order to make their arrangement correctly expressive of the facts. A pe-
culiarity of Dr. Stratmann’s method, which may cause some embarrassment to
the student who is not aware of it, is that he treats 4 improper compounds 9 not
as single words but as phrases. Thus the preposition biaide does not occur
in its alphabetical place, but examples of it (written bi side in two words) are

found in the article side. I have in many cases inserted cross-references to
obviate the difficulty arising from this cause.
I am painfully conscious of many serious shortcomings both in the plan
and the execution of this edition. The numerous errata will probably seem
to some critics to imply extreme carelessness on my part. To this fault I
cannot plead guilty; though for many of the oversights I am able to account
only by the state of ill-health from which I was suffering when the earlier
sheets were passed for press ; and if I had then possessed the experience I
have subsequently acquired in lexicographical work, I should have known
how to take more effectual precautions to ensure accuracy 1 . An assiduous
study of Middle-English during the progress of the work has shown me many
points in which my knowledge was at the outset materially defective. Perhaps
I may reasonably hope for some degree of indulgence on account of the
special difficulties of my task. Dr. Stratmann’s references are often to books
or editions which were not easily accessible to me — some of them, indeed, not
to be found even at the British Museum ; hence it was frequently not until
the article had gone to press that I discovered that he had mistaken the
meaning of a word, or had confused together words of different origin and
meaning; or, in other cases, that I had given a wrong interpretation to his
Latin gloss. The difficulty of accurate proof-reading will be obvious to any
person, at all experienced in such work, merely from an inspection of the
pages ; but it was greatly augmented by the fact that the author’s large mass
of MS. corrections and additions were made in such a manner that it con-
stantly required the closest attention to discover where the additional words
were intended to be inserted. If my attempt to indicate Middle-English
vowel-quantity be regarded as in itself justifiable, I may fairly claim that its
occasional errors and inconsistencies may be judged with the leniency due to
pioneer work. However, although this edition is very far from being such
as I should have wished to make it, I venture to hope that in spite of its
defects the book in its new form will be found far more useful than if it had
been re-issued with merely such slight revision as was contemplated by the
original author.

1 One thing which I especially regret is that a few quotations and references have been
inserted at second hand, matter which I had caused to be transcribed for me having been sent to
the printers under the mistaken belief that it had been properly verified. I hope, however, that
all the important errors arising from this cause have been duly noted in the supplementary pages
printed at the end of the volume.
